Doreen was a stay at a home mom who spent countless hours driving their 4 children to dance and music lessons, hockey, football and baseball practices and games. Doreen was athletic and walked or biked or both every day for many years. She curled for 1 year at the Curladrome winning the club championship and retired undefeated. She was an avid cross-country skier and was proud to ski in her eighties as now the membership was free. Doreen loved fishing with Ron in their canoe in the Graham area, often out fishing him with many pickerel and large pike. A much loved and loving grandma, Doreen along with Ron never missed a grade school or high school graduation for her 9 grandchildren no matter where they lived.
